Alert all Users in Channel

Posted on by 5

I want to notify all users by sending a message. Is there a way like <at>email</at>. Same like '@team' doing it manually.

    Hi @ProfileUser,

     

    There shouldn't be a problem. Cause the variable is an array and Apply to each action only accept array.

    How about you delete the Flow and create a new one?

    Hi @v-litu-msft  a literal translation would look like this:

    Flowcheck:

    • Errors(2)
      • Apply to each(1):
        • Correct invalid expressions for input parameters of the procedure/action "Apply_to_each"
      • Append to string variable(1):
        • Correct invalid expressions for input parameters of the procedure/action "Append_to_string_variable"
    • Warnings(0)

    The german error message doesnt explain further where exactly the mistake is or how to fix it.

    Hi @ProfileUser,

     

    I confirm that on my side but it works correctly:

    Could you please translate the two error messages?

    Hi thanks for the fast reply. I tried your workaround but the flow-check tells me I have 2 errors. 

    1) Adjust invalid input for "Apply to each"

    2) Adjust input parameters for "append to string variable"

    Sadly my company doesn't allow a language switch so here is a translation for some terms:
    "Zeichenfolge" = "String", "Auf alle anwenden" = "Apply to each", "@mention-Token für einen Benutzer abrufen"="Get @mention token for user", "An Zeichenfolge anfügen" = "Append to string variable"

    Hi @ProfileUser,

     

    It's unfortunate @mention all users in a team not supported in Power Automate current.

    If you like this feature, you could head to vote for this idea, raise it to make it come true in the future:

    As a workaround, you could store these members' Emails into an array variable, then generate @mention token for a user and append it into the string variable, it will make the message long but it could work, please have a try:
